## Reviews

### "My life without Iris would just be bland" — 5.0/5

> **Michele** | *13 August 2018* | Photography | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: This software is the do-all for my organization and increase my productivity by ten-fold. It's like having an assistant that works harder, faster and more efficient than a person. I'm able to organize like never before and it's so easy to use\!
> 
> **Cons**: The cost was a bit high, but it is worth every penny\!

### "Iris Works has streamlined so much of my client communication process. I love it." — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *18 May 2018* | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I appreciate that all of my clients' information can be stored in one place. From contracts to invoices, I don't have to worry. I also love that emails can go out automatically so I don't have to remember to send clients updates and reminders.
> 
> **Cons**: I wish Iris Works allowed you to do wedding day timelines, like HoneyBook does. I'm also not a huge fan of the way the lead forms looks. They don't integrate with my site well.

### "Disappointed in the level of support, communication and performance of Iris-Works" — 1.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *5 December 2021* | Photography | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Online scheduler was easy to use &#10;customized workflows
> 
> **Cons**: level of customer support and communication&#10;multiple issues with software performance with no resolution
> 
> I made a large investment and purchased the annual subscription to Iris-Works. During this time, I experienced multiple issues with software performance and lack of customer support. A deal breaker issue was that I had multiple clients unable to pay their invoices on this interface. Iris-Works customer support was unable to troubleshoot in a timely manner or even provide a permanent resolution. These issues and their lack of urgency to provide support, negatively impacted both my business standards and my customer service to my own clients. &#10;&#10;Overall, I am disappointed in the level of support, communication and performance of Iris-Works.  A customer management system is the lifeline of your business. As a business owner, you deserve a superior system, attentive support and clear communication. I strongly recommend avoiding Iris-Works, it will not be a positive experience or partnership.

### "Best studio software out there\!" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *12 March 2019* | Photography | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like how the software keeps me ahead of the game, on top of tasks and payments and makes it look like I have everything together when presented to my clients.
> 
> **Cons**: I really didn't like setting up the software but it was actually really easy.  There are tutorials walking you through everything you need to do, a live chat option for questions and a Facebook group for instant access to updates and helpful hints.  I think there is a paid version where someone can set it up for you which would be helpful if you have the money. I am just stubborn and wanted to do it myself.

### "Very User Friendly" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *3 January 2019* | Photography | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I love how easy it is to use Iris\! Before finding iris, I tried many other sites/compaines which where very tricky to understand. I came across Iris at WPPI and so glad I did, I gave it a try for a couple days before committing to it and loved how easy it was to set up a new client, add a contract and send an invoice to them. Also love how I can connect my gmail calendar and have a one calendar system.
> 
> **Cons**: Only wish I could separate my clients by weddings/corporate/portraits.
